At PGA, Rahm spikes club, then rallies into red numbers
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Jon Rahm spiked his 7-iron into the fairway after yet another shot that didn’t go where he wanted on a day that never felt quite right.
About a half-hour after that, though, Rahm was smiling as he wrapped up Thursday’s opening round at the PGA Championship. A day filled with dropped drivers, spiked irons and too many early bogeys ended with a red number on the board — a respectable 1-under 70 that brought a glimmer of hope to go with all the frustration.
“How many times have you seen someone start down by one, two or three and then do what he needs to do?” Rahm said. “I usually think every time someone wins a tournament, there is always a day when he is down. But the other rounds are good.”
The two-time major champion withstood four bogeys over his first six holes and a putting day that ranked 121st in a field of 156 to leave Valhalla with something to build on.
